Juniper Moon Farm Apatite 62

  • Rich saturated tones of tropical waters. This blue has a tinge of green to it.  Could also describe it as a blue teal. 
    • This is a beautiful summer shade in that it is not a deeply saturated winter gemstone color. Very pretty!
    • It's dark enough that the silk heather shows through quite nicely!
    • This yarn is a single ply, and works up with a lot of loft and texture.
    • My hand knit sample swatch was wonderful to work with.
  • Juniper Moon's best-selling yarn is Moonshine.
    • It has buttery softness that is a sheer joy to work with.
    • It's a single ply with a silk sheen showing through the heathery blend.
    • Holds textured stitches such as cables and lace beautifully.
    • Our test knit on the Silver Reed LK150 was a delightful experience. Knit smoothly and evenly. The heathery appearance was amazing.
  • Blending these high quality materials
    • Organic silk content for vibrant sheen
    • Highland Peruvian wool
    • Extra fine baby alpaca

Moonshine lives up to its name! The (20%) organic silk content makes the colors glow, while the (40%) highland Peruvian wool and (40%) extra fine baby alpaca are a buttery soft combination. These mix of fibers in this single ply yarn all take the dye at different intensities, making this yarn have a visible heathered appearance. Whether knitting or crocheting simple mitts or elaborate sweaters, you'll be reaching for Moonshine again and again.
